Exercise training lowers arterial blood pressure independently of Pannexin 1 in men with essential hypertension [PDF]
Introduction: Regular exercise training reduces arterial blood pressure but the underlying mechanisms are unclear. Here, we evaluated the potential involvement of Pannexin 1, an ATP releasing channel, in the blood pressure-reducing effect of training ...

Blocking microglial pannexin-1 channels alleviates morphine withdrawal in rodents [PDF]
The release of ATP from spinal microglia via pannexin-1 channels is required for withdrawal symptoms after termination of chronic opioid treatment in rodents, and pharmacological blockade of pannexin-1 channels reduces the severity of withdrawal without ...

Extracellular ATP hydrolysis inhibits synaptic transmission by increasing ph buffering in the synaptic cleft. [PDF]
Neuronal computations strongly depend on inhibitory interactions. One such example occurs at the first retinal synapse, where horizontal cells inhibit photoreceptors.

A permeant regulating its permeation pore: inhibition of pannexin 1 channels by ATP [PDF]
Pannexin 1 forms a large membrane channel that, based on its biophysical properties and its expression pattern, is a prime candidate to represent an ATP release channel. Pannexin 1 channel activity is potentially deleterious for cells as indicated by its

Pannexin‐1 in the CNS: Emerging concepts in health and disease [PDF]
AbstractPannexin‐1 (Panx1) is a large pore membrane channel with unique conduction properties ranging from non‐selective ion permeability to the extracellular release of signalling molecules. The release of ATP by Panx1 has been particularly well‐characterized with implications in purine signalling across a variety of biological contexts.

Pannexin-1 as a potentiator of ligand-gated receptor signaling [PDF]
Pannexins are a class of plasma membrane spanning proteins that presumably form a hexameric, non-selective ion channel. Although similar in secondary structure to the connexins, pannexins notably do not form endogenous gap junctions and act as bona fide ion channels.

Implications of pannexin 1 and pannexin 3 for keratinocyte differentiation [PDF]
Pannexin (Panx) 1 and Panx3 are integral membrane proteins that share some sequence homology with the innexin family of invertebrate gap junctions. They are expressed in mammalian skin. Pannexins have been reported to form functional mechanosensitive single-membrane channels, but their importance in regulating cellular function is poorly understood. In

Neurodegeneration in Multiple Sclerosis: The Role of Nrf2-Dependent Pathways
Multiple sclerosis (MS) encompasses a chronic, irreversible, and predominantly immune-mediated disease of the central nervous system that leads to axonal degeneration, neuronal death, and several neurological symptoms.
